Logistics developer Padrock has started construction on a new 210,000ft² urban multi-let industrial (MLI) and logistics development in Leyton, east London.
Leyton Logistics Hub, will comprise 11 units ranging from 6,000ft² to 36,000ft² all of which will target EPC ‘A+’, BREEAM ‘Outstanding’ ratings and will be aligned with Article 9 of EU Taxonomy (climate change mitigation).
Once complete, the scheme will have a gross development value of around £130m.
Padrock has appointed Glencar Construction to build the development, for the construction contract. Practical completion is expected in mid-2026.
The site provides excellent connectivity to London as it is located off Church Road within the A406 North Circular Road and in close proximity to the A12.
Leyton Logistics Hub will seek to deliver a modern multi-unit scheme of industrial and logistics accommodation, which will embed sustainability throughout, including green walls and roofs.
Padrock partner, Mark Symonds, said: “Leyton Logistics Hub is a significant development for Padrock as it further reinforces our expertise at identifying, securing and delivering strategically located sites which serve London.
“Our partnership with Glencar Construction will allow us to build high quality, sustainable and flexible space which will provide Leyton with a long-term economic asset.
“We are experiencing strong occupier interest and, now that work is underway, we are entering into advanced negotiations with a number of parties who we hope to announce in due course.”
